Can mushrooms help the terminally ill and the time they have?

My uncle was diagnosed with lung cancer 2 weeks ago. It is inoperable and has spread to his bones and liver. Our family is very tight and this will be a difficult time. I want to offer mushrooms to my uncle as a way to uplift his spirit. I believe there to be many facets of shrooming to be therapeutic. That may be my opinion, only. What I need help with is: making the offering. I want it to be solely his decision. I also want to inform based on real testimonials. Its happening so fast. If I'm going to do this, I cant wait. Can anyone share their insights or experiences on this?

Is your uncle an open-minded person? Also, how does he view drugs?

I wish I could find a better news story. I've seen one around but couldn't find it.
Anyways, even if it's helpful, don't give it to him or try to convince him if he's reluctant.

I agree with Icelander, but if you're like me, mushrooms are the only available change-agent, and given mushrooms or nothing, I would certainly suggest them to your uncle.

diseases are nonsense, people fail to understand we have a field around our entire body that is infinite in energy
one way to heal lung cancer is alternate nostril breathing ,
the western system is a bunch of demons eating people's souls , blasting them with radiation cutting off their foreskin for sick leasure as babies scream in pain insisting that every person in the world has a chemical imbalnace if they so much as feel "sad" once in a while, that the cause of all lies suffering is lack of taking pills every single day for your entire life , and that man for millions of years of evolution was dumb becuase he couldn't create synthetic chemistry destroying drugs to eat ,
the very western world has made a CANCER CURE ILLEGAL : CANNABIS SATIVA ( INDICA TOO ) do you know that ?
take cannabis, extract the oil, eat it, if you are not completely screwed by your cancer it will go away in a month or so .
do you know how ridiculously easy it is to cure cancer if you get out of satans medical system ?
well for 1 thing : get some fruit, get a good juicer, have a fruit juice fast until your turmors are gone you say that's hard ? its easier than dying and the juice is going to nourish you so you are not going to feel weak, can you be a man enough to handle detox ? the way to healing is hard at first and getting easier each second
the way to death is easy at first and getting more toxic each second, and that is how "they" , ( which do not exist in a "they" form but are organized units of rampant mediocre ignorance ) KILL YOU .
look at these chinese men they healed a womans cancer in 2 minutes
( play this at a soft almost not hearable volume all day long )
now all of you shut up , if you don't believe this man is a chi master , what the hell is he doing ? how can he shoot his hand with a rifle and break the bullets ?
i have givne you enough information for your uncle to have a supreme recovery , the best way to do it is probably bhastrika breathing ,
bhastrika breathing works as follows : rapid , somewhat forceful exhalations through the nose, please find how to do it on youtube , it will be done about 25 times if able , less if it is hard to do at first, then the chi and prana flows, when the prana begins to sto pbeing noticeable you do it again you will do this until the disease is healed or you are just exhausted or get incredibly bored, when the prana is strong enough the entire body becomes electricity and kundalini is awake, that is probably too intense, so be mindful not to become a live wire, but in so doing this the fields come in and scrub the lungs clean and annihilate disease,
the alternate nostril breathing does the same thing , not as rapidly , but is easier to do for 25 minute sore or so ,
simply goign 100 % alkaline at all times, putting a pinch of baking soda in water whenever you have a drink, making green smoothies with a vegetable and a fruit, staying away from dairy and meat , no coffee , having 1 glass green tea a day , and some chamomile
taking food grade hydrogen peroxide properly diluted with each glass of water = DRINKING LIQUID OXYGEN = IMMEDIATE CANCER CURE AND MASS PURGING OF TUMORS , can lead to "healing crisis" where entire body hurts with pain, doses will require intuitive intelligent to not cleanse too rapidly or too slowly .
doing a yoga asana if able , shoulder stand, even up against a wall, healing prana surges and flows through in as little as 2 minutes, take a break, 2 minutes, take a break,
prana and chi are needed, without it we get sick and die, a giant crystal singing bowl for $120 will probably heal it up also .
chanting OM
or this
the medical industry of the west is mentally retarded, they disregard all ancient and SIMPLE , FREE AND INEXPENSIVE HEALING TECHNIQUES DUE TO PRESSUR EFROM THE PHARMA-SUE-TICKLE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL MAFIA COMPLEX , that kills babies for fun in the third world because it is easie rto test on thir dworld humans in nations where there are not safety protectino laws
why the fuck aren't you dicks just sticking with natures cures ? it is a socipoathic almostnazi like hypnosis in the west, they will never go to find the chinese healers ishowed you to figure out how to actually fix dis-ease.
( some will , but most won't ) ,
if pot oil cures skin tumors in a week which it can , then they give you a cream that is toxic, hurts your body , makes your entir eface break out in rashes, and say "good job we helped him , screw marijuana " then he dies of tumors, fucked up shit.
any of this will work , any of it at all, if he is able to breath at all, in any way , he can do alternate nostril breathing, this is something an 80 year old man can do , if he will do it at least 25 minutes , 4 times a day , the prana will build up and disintegrate evil.
now i am not your common sense, i am not working to make someone do something, the FAITH in any of these actions is also needed,
but i will put it this way : i was driving chanting om tryumbakam.... mantra ( a very long mantra ) and at a point this light went in and DELETED, in one second all the coffee out of my body which was causing me a lot of pain at the time, from having had too much ( coffee is basically a toxin , we need to be careful with it ) now when you experience that , you say "why did i belive in the stupidity of the conditioned material world " but if you have not experienced the spirit or energy you are either very motivated by these types of words or think they are crazy and insane, which is fine, but its a sad loss of a lie when there are numerless ways to fix such a situation.
-------------------- I am the MacDaddy of Heimlich County, I play it Straight Up Yo! ....I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow, to feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human...... Om Namah Shivaya, I tell you What!

I don't expect that you realize that you are in a full-blown hypermanic episode, but that would be my best guess sitting where I am. Of course, regardless of whether it's Bipolar Disorder or substance-induced mania, or both, you're gonna crash. And then some of us will be making suggestions to help support that depression. Icelander will no doubt remind you to take your meds again (which is a good thing, if stability means anything). And then what? Another cycle? Pranayama is not gonna cure cancer any more than faith, as according to Mary Baker Eddy. Neither is cannabis oil. These exalted ideas are symptomatic of your current ego-inflation. Take heed from the myth of Icarus, who didn't listen to his elder (Daedalus). He crashed, big time.

I avoid that by taking little naps every afternoon.
Most likely won't work for leery at this juncture however. Still... a nap is nice.

His posts just read to me like he's taken A LOT of acid over the years, not necessarily like he's in a hypermanic episode. Kinda like LunarEclipse's posts.

I've taken a lot of acid over the course of my life, and lesser psychedelics before that (if you count hashish, I began New Years Eve 1968-1969), morning glory seeds and Sandoz psilocybin followed in 1971. Windowpane LSD commenced July 1972, and the following 4 years saw weekly to twice-weekly trips. Less frequent from 1976 to 1989, Then, I grew my first mushrooms in 1989. The point is, having taken a lot of psychedelics doesn't result is complete disorganization of thoughts, lack of punctuation, capitalization, and violation of grammatical rules. Ever read Ram Dass? He took more acid than I have, and he's always communicated beautifully. I don't know how much acid Ken Wilber has taken, but he is a top-notch writer/thinker. Even flakey-thinkers likeTerrence McKenna communicated his if-fy theories well. I realize that there are publishers and editors, but I've heard these people speak also. It's not the psychedelics, it's the mind that's in question. I still have laughable written records of some early acid trips. Truly ineffable experiences are non-linear, wholistic, untranslatable with linear language. Poetry is perhaps the only linguistic means that comes close to expressing such experiences. I can't be sure, but my guess is that Alex Grey doesn't paint when he's tripping.

Ya sorry man it wasn't a very serious post. But then again if you are schizo or have other mental disorders I don't see tons of psychs being harmless.

I'm as big a fan of acid as anyone here, but I think one should be careful with this line of reasoning. The exception doesn't disprove the rule. There are people who go on meth binges for weeks at a time and "come out fine" but that doesn't mean it holds true for the majority.
I can see how enough psyches, especially DMT, could leave one "permafried", and know from first hand experience that HPPD is real.
Its a risk/benefit analysis everyone has to do for themselves, some think its worth it and others don't.

I think that MDMA would be the least risky myself, it's softer/more ego-friendly, and more likely to help somebody open up and talk about uncomfortable subjects surrounding death. On the other hand, I'm fairly sure at this point that all of the said entheogens have been shown to have some success in treating anxiety/depression with terminally ill cancer patients (various MAPS research studies), but surely they were carefully planned in therapeutic environments.
~ To the OP: Whatever you decide, my thoughts are with you..
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

I didn't say you had schizophrenia. I was making a joke about leery. And don't be a semantics bitch because i said someone is schizo instead of writing out the person has the illness schizophrenia. It means the same thing.
